Giraffe Baby

Most babies measured 5ft would be considered big – but newborn giraffe Margaret at Chester Zoo, UK is seen as unusually small for her species. More photos of the animal being fed by her keepers inside! How sweet!

What a darling baby. And so fond of her caretaker. That’s heartwarming.

Also: Giraffe poos are not that big a deal. Minimal expenditure for the honor of being trusted by such a special creature. Those of us who know what it’s like to truly bond with a fur creature totally “get” these photos. I feel bad for those who never have.

I’m sorry that you that don’t care about animals are so selfish and stupid. we are suppose to be good steward of the Earth. I guess you people are very Lonely. I will pray for you. Hopeful that will help.

Ummmmm……. Margaret is not an IT. She is a FEMALE. Animals are not “ITs.” Why did you write: “It’s perfect”? Unless you mean that “Jeffrey” is perfect as a name, but then…….. HER name is MARGARET, and how boringly unoriginal (and typical) to want to name her after an American toy store chain, especially when Margaret was born and lives in Great Britain.

oh my how very cute
just wondering why anyone would get on to say really hopeless
and yet worthless info
lik mark who said ” giraffs are stupid
and to post #1 – 90% of that guy’s job probably consists of cleaning up giraffe terds”
like mark why ya here if ya dnt lik the animal is ya life that sad honestly
sum1 didnt have a pet at a young age to introduce how truely great animals are
pictures are so amazin would luv to work there
hopefully i will soon with my course

THESE PHOTOS ARE VERY CUTE I WISH IT WAS ME FEEDING THE BABY GIRAFFE I HAVE BEEN LUCKY TO HAVE FED A GIRAFFE BEFORE. I ALSO WAS ABLE TO SPECK WITH THE PEOPLE IN KENYA WHO HAVE THE GIRAFFE HOUSE THAT WOULD BE MY DREAM TO BE ABLE TO DO WHAT THEY ARE I LOVE GIRAFFES AND I HAVE MY WHOLE LIFE THEY ARE A GREAT SWEET ANIMALE AND I WOULD DO ANYTHING TO HAVE ONE AS A PET BUT THAT CAN NEVER HAPPEN BUT I CAN DREAM THAT I DO

So sad how some people are so miserable that they can’t even see the beauty in the small things. These pictures, and that baby, are precious. I too know what it’s like to bond with a furry creature. Those who don’t understand should be eliminated.

Look at her eyes, they’re so trusting and full of love. She is truely innocent. For those who say Giraffes are pointless…..YOU are pointless!! At least this wonderful creature has a place in the Kingdom.

Raylee … I so agree with you these people above saying negative things about a beautiful animal have no heart they are sleepers in this wondrous world we live in..PEOPLE WHO TAKE FOR GRANTED OR SHOW DISDAIN FOR NATURE AND LIFE ARE DEAD INSIDE ..
a true and absolute waste of life..
these people are the reason we have pollution in our drinking water and air these people are the kind that see life other than there own as noting no respect no love for the oneness that is all things.. these are godless people.THE TYPE OF PEOPLE THAT THINK ANIMALS HAVE NO SOUL…..I do not speak in a religious manner but one of the ether the chi the energy of all this is life of all that is you and me ..
they have a long way to go before they will ascend to a greater level of being..
I PITY THEM..
NAMASTE
OUTVOICED

It’s pretty sad when you lack a life so much that you have to look at pictures you don’t like, give an email address, bogus or otherwise, and then take the time to type out a comment. Alex’s comment was pretty funny, I admit, but to mark (#7), giraffe’s may be stupid, but they don’t spend their time look at us online and posting about how dumb we are do they?

This is a baby that would not have survived in the wild so the fact that she must live in captivity means alot of humans care to make the effort. For the gift of life, she is not to be pitied even if she will likely always be captive. In captivity she can live as a steward for humans to learn about and admire her species….hopefully for many years.
Margaret’s species is more rare all the time….mostly directly & indirectly due to humans. It is only right that she be cared for by our species. Margaret IS ‘special’….more than can be said for most of you. That in itself is sad.

My goodness, She is so extremely wonderfully beautiful. Respect. I would have liked to have known her story. Why she’s fed by humans,something happened to her mama?
Giraffes are graceful, and look so wise,as they slowly walk around seeing everything from far above. The lion is scared to attack a baby giraffe,as the mother can kick a lion to death.
So if the lion is the king of the jungle, what is the giraffe to be called?
Ruler of the Savannah? =)
These creatures are friendly and peaceful. Very special.

echoing “outvoiced” thoughts, and while we may be “out voiced” by the selfish, shallow, disrespectful, evil and so negative parties in this world, we are not silenced, and with enough truly caring and good hearted respectful others in the world, our voices can and do make a difference. As is stated in the poem Desiderata, “ignore the dull and the ignorant, for they too have an opinion”, but that is not to say that opinion has any real meaning to anyone. I would also love to be the person fortunate enough to have the job of sheer joy that makes ones heart smile, that the caretaker of that giraffe baby has, untainted, pure, innocent, magnificent beauty, as “Creator” by any name intended it to be, to share my time and my love with such magnificent and beautiful creatures.

im kind of wondering why people who hate these pictures/giraffes are even responding. surely if they hate them that much they wouldnt be bothered to take the time. it makes no sense to me,and it certainly is weird to think they get a rush from saying how ‘stupid’ a baby animal is. but oh well..giraffes are actually a favourite animal of mine,and i think Margaret is such a lovely little thing. giraffes seem soo very gentle,even the look out of their eyes says that. i wish her good health and a long happy life with her mum and the rest of her family

btw, please do not get any ideas and go out and get a giraffe, they need large quantities of space and food, and no matter how cute it probably would be sad from being away from their habitat, and would get lonely. This one is probably an orphan or sick, therefore needs attention, and probably be released soon sorry to crush some of you guy’s hopes and dreams.

Everyone has their own opinions. It’s fine that Mark and Alex and other people don’t like the animals, and same with Karen and Kymm and such.

Giraffes are my favorite animals in the whole world you people are stupid to think giraffes are pointless because no animal in the world is pointless.God made everything with a point.Giraffes are cute and nice and amazing.And if you think they are stupid for whatever they do I bet they think your pretty stupid too.They are smarter than you are too. You can’t even imagine how sweet and smart and amazing to be with. I bet you wish you were a giraffe because I do.Giraffes are cooler than you and I but wwwwwwwwwwwaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy more you than I.You people are stupid and annoying if you think its stupid. That baby is a special creature from god and it was made with a purpose and if you can’t respect that then the heck with youpeople of Earth. Animals have more of a purpose in life than anything on Earth. Adnd guess what else, WE ARE ALL ANIMALS!

Awwww! Margaret’s sooo cute!!! Thank you so much for sharing this beautiful creature with us.

For those of you who think a baby giraffe is stupid, how is it stupid?!? It’s one of God’s creatures, it’s a beautiful, innocent baby, and it’s designed to do what it does, so again I ask, how is it stupid? If you think it’s so stupid then don’t waste your time.

Anyway, thanks again for sharing! I agree with everyone who said positive things about this gorgeous baby giraffe.

This is the cutest thing I have EVER seen in my life! But I have som ethings to say about the people out in this world looking at these pics and say cruel things!!!!i AM GOIN TO GIVE YA’LL A LITTLE PEICE OF MY MIND!

Alex: How is this animal ANNOYING? I think that from my veiw that I see you in right now,You are a cruel animal hater that does not give a crap about anybody or anything but yourself.

Mark:STUPID? NO!…whats stupid is that you think that an animal… WHO YOU HAVE NEVER HAD A CHANCE WITH …and you are saying that it is STUPID?!?!

Hanna: POINTLESS!!! DONT EVEN GET ME STARTED! WHAT U COMMENTED IS POINTLESS!

Britany: I agree with you! People are cruel! I dont understand why people are like that! An dya’ll this is one of God’s creatures.. respect that and so are you…and a lot of peopl erespect you! i think…
